I posted this in another thread, but I thought I would start a new post so others would see it too.

"Well, Dougs comment reminded me to check something I have been meaning to do. I called "The Carburetor Shop" - 204 EAST 15TH STREET, ELDON, MISSOURI 65026 - (573) 392-7378 and he claims to have a kit for the Zenith 9711. He says it will fit the 9711a and the 9711b. If you really need one he says it is $94.00. Ouch!, but I think they make these up for obsolete carbs and I imagine they are not a big seller, so I guess the price is understandable. Anyway if you have been looking, he says they have it."

I didn't think to ask what was included in that price. I also didn't think to ask if they has a float.

I posted this mainly because up until now, I thought this kit was unavailable.

If someone gets one or has already had one from them, I would appreciate some feedback on the quality and contents of the kit.

$25 plus s/h. Kit includes gaskets, float valve (needle & seat), float pin, idle needle and spring, plate screws, etc. We can supply some other parts for the R20T series but availability depends on which part is needed. Thanks.

I have also asked if they have the float and the high speed needle assembly. I will post that info when I have it.

Thoughts to live by; by Jack Handy: (Anybody remember that one?)

I only found this source because I posted the original source on another forum. I was reminded by a member there that we should always check with site sponsors when looking for parts. I really didn't think of that at the time and I am glad he reminded me. The cheaper source is in fact a sponsor of the other forum, so if I buy it from him, it is good for him and in turn all other members of the forum.
